Overall, a pleasant stay ##### Eileen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anita Mar 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable and clean Overnight stay as it was conveniently located near the airport for my flight the next morning.
